Funny Frustrated Softball Pitcher

[lovelyzynia]

hahaha at the end was FUNNY!!!!!!! i am signing up for it this year and this is my first time.My big sister plays softball too

[dossfamily100]

hey paxtonian12 i pitch to and i go to pitching lesssons, and they tell me when i get mad that a pitcher never shows her emotions, plus i think you have good motion just bring the arm before the hip and one more thing when you pitch you explode dont hold it in really jump and drag your foot and it wont be a iilegal pitch because my pitch is similar and i just have to drag my foot and remember pull back with the foot ! goodluck maybe we will be in the pro league one day !*(:*!!!!!!!

[sktmlb]

her hip is faster than her arm... just shorten the jump out

[skylareedwards]

bring ur hip in right be 4 ur arm

[zacksfastpitch]

she needs to drag anyways. they will be strict about it when she gets to the upper levels. try doing the towel drill. that will help her a ton!

[AntonioSousa1991]

I coach the baseball and softball. She did leap, but its not illegal. But however, she lost control of the pitch and the velocity because of the leap, she loses momentum on the delivery.

Illegal is when the pitcher steps out too wide and the umpire will call an illegal pitch and a balk. Pitcher love to make wide steps because it can either increases velocity, or curves, which makes softball pitchers very dominant.

[heyhiyopeace]

pause at 1:00 you can see her leaping

[usfam]

it is the pitchers responsibility to maintain the area of the rubber while in game. That's why you see pitchers filling in the hole between pitches. Any ASA ump worth their salt would give her a warning the call an illegal pitch.

[78cwcaldwell]

Not illegal due to the hole but many pitchers get so much heat from umpires and opposing coaches who dnt know any better. It's really much easier to do the "leap and drag" on a proper pitching surface

[Creamcutie97]

youre foot isnt staying on the ground through the whole motion.. youre leaping. thats an illegal pitch

[SillyGirlz12398]

she was leaping...thats illegal

[31softballchik]

Hilourious

[samsung5647]

not funny

[RunNeonTiger27]

Its actually not an illegal pitch. It does look like shes leaping, but in the ASA rule book it says that if theres a hole a pitchers drag foot can break contact with the ground, but not go above the plane of where the ground would be.

[SamiLuvsChase]

its not illegal. i play softball and i pitch. but tell her not to lean in that much, and keep herself straight, and push hard off of the mound to get a better stride

[lilsmileygurl37]

@SamiLuvsChase it is illegal she is cro-hopping

[SparkleGreen10]

@lilsmileygurl37 i don't think she is....

[SparkleGreen10]

@lilsmileygurl37 o wait never mind...:)

[ChinchillaLover332]

If she didn't bring her arm so far back before her push off the ball would go alot faster

[wallenie]

release the ball at your leg thats how you throw a strike i pitch for my team !! :) P.S im not trying to be a know it all im just trying to help

[trueebluue555]

she's throwing illegal pitches!!!!!!

[isabel91210]

@trueebluue555 how?

[trueebluue555]

@isabel91210: because both of her feet are off the ground!!

[e555cute]

@trueebluue555 1. no shes not 2. WHO FRIKKIIN CARES??? NO1!!!!!!!!! so lay off

[trueebluue555]

@trueebluue555 : now i kno why they call it funny fusterated pitcher..... its funny cuz you're fusterated!!! lol

[kscarzafava]

Try placing a hand towel under the toe of her drag foot and tell her, where here foot goes, the towel goes. It will help teach her to get her foot in the right position to push off and keep it down. Where she is practicing, I agree; I would not penalize her as an umpire because of the fact there is no surface where her foot would normally drag. She is on the right track... keep up the good work.

[zeonbloom]

Hahahahahaha

[54pandalover]

lol i love the ending !!!

[EstrangeloEdessa]

Whoever says she is "crow hopping" or illegally pitching is a moron. Her foot clearly drags each pitch except for initially coming off the rubber but this is because of the absence of dirt. If she filled in the hole every time her foot would drag the entire way through dirt, you can't penalize a pitcher for that especially when there is no intent to hop, there is a clear distinction between a hop to gain advantage and this.

[02Fastpitch]

@EstrangeloEdessa gosh, finally somebody gets it!

[paisly33]

too cute! bet shes mad @ you for posting ha

[845birdy]
